The Ecosystem Approach

The Ecosystem Approach presents an integrated framework for considering nature, society, and economy together. Topics include understanding the ecosystem approach, the role of biodiversity, social dimensions, economic considerations, climate change and resilience, land use and management, water management, monitoring and assessment, and policy frameworks.

The biggest challenges of our time—climate change, biodiversity loss, social inequality—are all interconnected. This book provides the ecosystem thinking needed to address them holistically rather than in isolation.

For environmental professionals, policy makers, and anyone working on sustainability.
